About Cookies and Related Technology: A cookie is a small piece of information that a website transfers to the hard drive of a visitor’s computer for record-keeping purposes. A web beacon, also known as a “clear GIF” (a common format for image files), is an invisible file located on web pages that you visit. They are often used in combination with a cookie to track navigation of a website. If you visit a page on this website that contains a web beacon, it communicates with your computer to determine, among other things, whether you have been to that page before or viewed a particular advertisement.

A cookie is used to help a website distinguish a user’s browser as a previous visitor and thus save and remember any preferences that may have been set while the user was browsing the site. Cookies can also be used to collect information about how websites are used and help to manage online advertising by enabling us to understand which ads bring users to our website and tailor offers on this and other websites on which we advertise. If you are a registered subscriber this may include your name and email address, which may be transferred to data processors for verification purposes.

Security Safeguards: New Canadian Media takes reasonable precautions to protect against anticipated hazards such as unauthorized access or use, alteration, unlawful or accidental destruction and accidental loss of individually identifiable information. However, we cannot guarantee that it is completely secure from people who might attempt to evade our security measures or intercept transmissions over the Internet.
